The City of Atlanta Department of Grants Community Development Division received a $1,753,802.27 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control under the Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program (CFDA 14.900). The grant, awarded on May 1, 2024, will support comprehensive efforts to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned rental and owner-occupied housing in low-income and minority neighborhoods within the Atlanta metropolitan area. Key activities include conducting lead inspections, risk assessments, implementing interim controls, and performing abatement to protect children under six years old from lead poisoning in housing constructed before 1960. The grant will enable the City of Atlanta to leverage federal resources to address housing-related health and safety hazards, build local capacity for lead-safe work practices, and develop community-based approaches that maximize child protection from lead exposure.
